Comment on Hexbear federation megathread

• Rom@hexbear.net ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  It was an extremely bigoted, vulgar, personal attack on an admin in his own thread about why Hexbear deserves a second chance.

  Sure, no arguments there.

  An utterly vile statement like that followed by your soft “time and place” non-rebuke does not deserve any benefit of the doubt so yes, I will absolutely jump to the obvious interpretation.

  Okay, but I’ve already clarified that I didn’t agree with what he said, and all I was trying to say was “be nice.” You obviously want less needless hostility from Hexbear users towards other instances, and I want that, too. Please afford us the same respect.

  Especially in a thread about continued unacceptable Hexbear behavior. “Read the room” indeed.

  In the same message the admin has also asked all users to “Be kind to each other, even if you disagree.” I’m respecting that request by trying to have a polite discussion with the users in this instance, but I have received nothing but hostility from you in return.
